Chapter 469: 469
The old man in the white robe glanced at Wang Yinru as he thought to himself . He felt that his placing a wager would indeed be beneficial .
After he wins the wager, they would be able to control the Dafang Sect at a minimal price, then wouldn’t have to fight violently with the ancient martial arts practitioners in the series of the three big mountain ranges . Now that he was interested in the Dafang Sect, or rather he was interested in the heritage of the Ming Cult, he didn’t mind ignoring other sects .
“Do you dare place a wager? Don’t you already have the ancient martial arts in the series of the three big mountain ranges in your hands?” Wang Yinru asked with a cold laugh .
“A wager is possible, but it must be today,” the old man in the white robe said stoically .
According to his experience, he had already guessed that this wager was merely a delaying tactic . Perhaps there was outside assistance coming to the series of the three big mountain ranges .
If it was just in normal times, the old man in the white robe would have waited for a day to see who would come to the assistance of the ancient martial arts sects in the series of the three big mountain ranges . But now, since the matter concerned the Ming Cult’s heritage, he knew that he must cut off any possibilities of surprises .
“This wager is such a serious matter that the series of the three big Mountain ranges must naturally arrange for it . It can’t be today, but must, at the earliest, be tomorrow,” Wang Yinru said tepidly . She knew that, if she couldn’t delay for another day, there wouldn’t be any purpose for this wager at all .
“Trying to delay? You think I am so easily tricked,” old man Wu said with a cold smile .
“Trick you? Hmph . Do you intend to have all of the benefits without any of the risks?” Wang Yingru asked nonchalantly .
As she could think of this plan, then others could naturally also think of it . So, she was not surprised that the old man in the white robe knew her purpose .
However, so what if he knows?
Now, there were only two paths laid before him . One was to agree to the wager and the delaying of a day as the price . The other was to start a war with all of the ancient martial arts sects in the series of three big mountain ranges . However, even if they were to win, they also would pay a tremendous price .

“You indeed have some wisdom, but it’s a pity, as I may have agreed to the conditions of the wager a day ago . But, today…” The old man in the white robe paused a while before commenting coldly, “Nobody can stop me… Go on, kill all of the martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm . I want to see how many of you are going to die!”
As old man Wu gave the order, a group of people behind him acted immediately, pouncing towards the ancient martial arts practitioners in the series of the three big mountain ranges . As they attacked, they were careful to only pick those highly skilled martial arts practitioners . Once they killed all of the martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm, the ancient martial arts sects in the series of the three big mountain ranges would naturally no longer be a threat .
Granny Hong Xia and Hu Tianfeng’s faces changed slightly . They were surprised that the old man in the white robe was so decisive . Even if it meant both parties would perish and suffer disastrously, he had been reluctant to delay for a day .
Among the group of people present, the toughest to deal with were the old man in the white robe and two other martial arts practitioners at the acme of the Embryonic Breathing realm . Each one of them was difficult to deal with alone, and the fact that there were three of them didn’t help matters!
Granny Hong Xia gnashed her teeth, while her figure flashed in front of the most frightening old man in the white robe, blocking him from moving forward at all . In the series of the big three mountain ranges, only she had the ability to challenge this person a little .
“I didn’t kill you yesterday, but now, since you are so pig-headed, you won’t get out of here alive . ” The old man in the white robe snorted as he fought Granny Hong Xia head-on . The fight had just started, yet Granny Hong Xia was already at a disadvantage and was surrounded by many perils .
On the other side, Hu Tianfeng and some other Hu Clan martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm collaborated to block the old man in blue, who was at the acme of the Embryonic Breathing realm . As for the Taoist Priest Yun Ling of the Cangling Taoist Temple, he collaborated with a few martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm to fight the middle-aged man in green .
Although they worked together to fight against the enemies, when facing the two frightening experts in the acme of the Embryonic Breathing realm, they were unable to resist them and were constantly placed in a disadvantageous position . In the fight of the martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm, the series of the three big mountain ranges eventually placed them at a disadvantage, but in the fight of the martial arts practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm, their standings in the series of the three big mountain ranges were stronger, as there were many martial arts practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm .
As such, when facing that group of people, a few would usually attack one . Some would even have at least seven or eight attacking one!
Regardless of how strong those people in the Qi Nucleation realm were, when faced with the attack of so many martial arts practitioners of the same cultivation at once, they couldn’t resist for too long . Thus, in a short period of time, many people died in the battle .
Thud!

Granny Hong Xia’s figure flew backwards before landing on the ground with a loud thud . Her aura instantly diminished and seemed to have aged ten years!
“Hmph . Don’t spare a single one of those hoodlums! However, let bygones be bygones for those people who leave now . ” The Old fellow in the white robe floated in the air, while his cold voice resonated throughout the entire public square . His terrifying and eerie aura caused chills to run down the spines of the people .
As Granny Hong Xia was defeated, this meant that the highest fighting capacity in the series of the three big mountain ranges had been defeated . This was truly the worst thing that could have happened to them .
The Old fellow in the white robe flew in the air and passed through the region that had the most people within it . Then, he smacked down his palm vigorously, and five or six martial arts practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm exploded immediately into pieces!
He then flew in the air, leaving a trail of blood everywhere he passed through . After a short while, more than twenty martial arts practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm had died at his hands . These killings terrified the martial arts practitioners in the series of the three big mountain ranges .
Without the interference of Granny Hong Xia, the old fellow in the white robe was simply uncontrollable! He killed everywhere he went . It was truly a massacre!
“I will say it again . Leave now, and you will avoid death . Only then will I let bygones be bygones . ” The voice of the old man in the white robe echoed throughout the public square .
Although he had killed many people, his people were also dying constantly . After all, there were more than ten ancient martial arts sects in the series of the three big mountain ranges . With so many martial arts practitioners, he couldn’t have killed all of them . By the time he would have killed all of them, more than half of his people would have been dead!
Many martial arts practitioners in the series of the three big mountain ranges began to have cold feet, which made them instantly think of retreating . After all, this opposing group of people were just too terrifying . If this slaughtering continued, they might all be killed!
This kind of fight was not mainly dependent on numbers, as only the martial arts practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm were qualified to participate . Although there were many martial arts practitioners in the Qi Nucleation in the series of the three big Mountain ranges, there was a limit to how many could join the fighting, too .
At that moment, Hu Tianfeng flew backwards, his entire body covered with blood and his face as pale as a sheet . Now, among the other two who had collaborated with him, one was dead and the other one was severely injured .

Those martial arts practitioners at the acme of the Embryonic Breathing realm were too frightening! In fact, they didn’t seem to be normal martial arts practitioners at all!
Many of the martial arts practitioners of the small sects were completely scared out of their wits . Now that the strongest martial arts practitioners of the four big influences had been defeated, everyone felt hopeless .
Some of the martial arts practitioners, not caring too much about the thousand years of peace treaty, escaped frantically . After all, if they could possibly avoid death, nobody was willing to wait around and die!
Wang Yinru’s face paled as she was working with the other few martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm to attack the martial arts practitioner at the acme of the Embryonic Breathing realm . After Hu Tianfeng had been defeated, she could only lead the others to replace the practitioners that she had lost . Otherwise, they would attack those martial arts practitioners in the lower cultivation stages, which would cause the situation to become uncontrollable .
However, in terms of the strength of the top level, their ranks in the series of the three big mountain ranges were too weak and they were too far off from their opponent’s . Originally, the Jiang Clan’s Patriarch was able to handle the situation alone, but after Mo Wen had killed all of the people in the Jiang Clan, the influence of the Dafang Sect had almost dwindled by half . At this moment, Mo Wen was not in the sect, so the strength of the Dafang Sect was far weaker than the other three big influences’ strengths .
What should we do now? Wang Yinru was secretly anxious, as she had never expected such a big problem to occur after Mo Wen had given the management of the sect to her less than a month ago . If the Dafang Sect is destroyed, how will I be able to face him?
“I would like to know where exactly is your Dafang Sect’s young Sect Leader . You are the Acting Sect Leader, shouldn’t you know?” A white figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, the old man in the white robe appeared beside Wang Yinru .
As he waved his hand, a terrifying Inner Qi sealed the surrounding space and constrained Wang Yinru . Then, his figure flashed again and he brought Wang Yinru out of the fighting ground and into a vacant land .
“Old fellow, you have a lot of problems!” Wang Yinru bawled . At that moment, a cold Qi fluctuated and transformed into a Cold Ice Palm, which hit aggressively towards the old man in the white robe .
“You have overestimated yourself!” The old man in the white robe laughed coldly, while his hand smacked casually, smashing the Cold Ice Palm into pieces .
Then, his palm extended forward to disperse the Cold Ice Domain, which was wrapped around Wang Yinru . He then grabbed her shoulder and pinned her down instantly .
“Tell me where your Sect Leader is, or die!” the old man in the white robe said stoically .
“Old fellow, do you actually think that I will tell you?” Wang Yinru struggled for a while, but couldn’t get out of the old man’s grip . His hand was like a mountain, which pressed on her without moving .
“You are challenging my patience . I have a thousand ways of making your life a living hell! In the end, you will still tell me the truth obediently, so why wait?” The old man in white robe asked indifferently .
After all, he had seen many stubborn people, who were reluctant to admit defeat . However, regardless of who they were, once they were in his hands, they all eventually gave in!
“I can tell you, but you have to stop the massacre in the series of the three big mountain ranges immediately!” Wang Yinru uttered, while a radiance flashed in her eyes .
“You think that you are qualified to negotiate with me?” the old man in white robe asked her .
“In the series of the three big mountain ranges, I am the only one who knows the whereabouts of the Sect Leader . If I were to die, it would be impossible for you to find him in a short period of time,” Wang Yinru said with a mocking smile .
Although she didn’t know this old man in the white robe’s motives, she knew that he was not interested in the Dafang Sect, but was really interested in Mo Wen . Otherwise, he wouldn’t be constantly asking about Mo Wen’s whereabouts!
“Since you obviously want to die, I will fulfill your wish…” The old man in the white robe’s face turned gloomy . He had never negotiated with a hostage before, especially one who dared to threaten him!
“Are you looking for me?” Just when the old man in the white robe was preparing to use some tactics that would make Wang Yinru’s life a living hell, a nonchalant voice was suddenly heard . At first, it sounded far away, but by the time it reached their ears, it seemed to be very close .
The old man in the white robe paused instantly, while a radiance flashed in his eyes . As he looked into the horizon, his pupils constricted and he wondered…
That person’s tone… Can he really be the Sect Leader of the Dafang Sect? The successor of the Ming Cult?
A dim golden light flashed in the air as a figure appeared in front of everyone . Everyone’s eyes subconsciously focused towards the source of that voice, especially the martial arts practitioners in the series of the three big mountain ranges . The figure’s appearance had clearly brought them some hope .
